–

Rebecca Marino is the last Canadian to still be alive at the ATP and WTA Tour events this week.

And she’s taken a lucky loser break and turned it into a quarterfinal.

She came back from the depths to win her second-round match, and now plays a familiar foe in Zhu Lin of China.

Also look for Garcia vs Kvitova in Berlin, among many appetizing matchups.

(Berlin is six hours ahead of EDT; Birmingham is five hours ahead).
